Our online shop

Our latest book ‘Lest we forget’ is now available from our online shop. It contains all the information and more from our hugely moving and well-received poppy project of 2022. You will also find note cards, 2024 calendars and our other books. We can post these to you with a small charge for P&P, or deliver them free of charge in Newport and Wormit. They will also be available at our future events.

Our book ‘Houses with a History’ was produced in response to the huge demand for it at our Houses with a History exhibition and is full of fascinating facts about 79 houses in Newport and Wormit. It has proved so popular that it has sold out! We do however have some ‘seconds’, not quite perfect copies, available through our online shop at the reduced price of £6.50.
